Hi, I'm Dave Graybill, the Fishin' Magician!

My brother Rick Graybill stands at the end of the cleaning table with two limits of walleye from Banks Lake in front of him.

Here you will find current information on fishing in Central Washington State.

I grew up in Central Washington and began writing about the outdoors in the mid 70s. I began broadcasting report on outdoor recreation on KOZI Radio in Lake Chelan in 1991.

New From Northwest Bait & Scent

Most anglers in Central Washington are familiar with Graybill’s Guide Formula.
